Our servers do not offer SSI facilities <!--#include virtual="ssi.htm" --> or <!--#include file="ssi.htm" -->, however you can create the same effect by using Javascript. These notes were submitted by a customer and are here to help you.
How?
First:
Include the following in the <head><head> section of your page
<SCRIPT language="JavaScript" > </SCRIPT>
and
<script type="text/javascript" src="myincludefilename.js"> </SCRIPT>
with your own file name substituted where you want the included text to appear.
Then:
Create a file myincludefilename.js to hold the text you want to output, then insert the text and wrap each line in a document.write(" "); statement.
Remember that in JS any newline characters ends the instruction so every line must be wrapped in a document.write statement.
The javascript file can have any extension, and be held in any folder subject to the usual rules about valid pathnames.
Example: Good
document.write("James Brown is in the office <br>");
document.write("Helen Smith is out of office <br>");
Example: Bad
document.write("James Brown is in the office <br>
"Helen Smith is out of office <br>");
A web search on 'javascript include' will bring up lots more examples.
